capn_midnight Posted June 22, 2003 Posted June 22, 2003 the problem with the flash kick is that it is counter-intuitive, and thereby not very powerful. The power of the kick is souly in how fast you can perform the back flip, but extending your leg to actually perform the kick slows you down tremendously. Also, when in the middle of the back flip, if you connect with anything substantial, you will most likely bounce off. The physics just won't allow it. Flash kick is a very appropriate name. Arguing with an engineer is like mud wrestling a pig. After a few hours, you realize they both like it.
boxeador Posted June 24, 2003 Posted June 24, 2003 Just wondering, why do you wish to learn how to do a flash-kick?

karatekid1975 Posted June 24, 2003 Posted June 24, 2003 To me, I know it's outta fun. I donno about anyone else, but maybe that's the reason for him/her. Just like I know the 540 isn't for self defense, but what the heck. It's fun Laurie F
Treebranch Posted June 24, 2003 Posted June 24, 2003 OK I'll buy that. "It is easier to find men who will volunteer to die, than to find those who are willing to endure pain with patience.""Lock em out or Knock em out"
bladeboy22 Posted August 10, 2004 Posted August 10, 2004 alright first learn a really good round off and be able to jump up put pf it. Then after you get good at those get over the fear of going backwards by learning backflips with a spotter. after you get over the fear then do a backflip after the round off. then add the kick. most people kick with the right leg. some people trail their left leg back others chamber it, that's up to your own prefrance. the biggest thing is to get over the fear. here's a link to help http://www.trickstutorials.com/ F.E.A.R.-False Evidence Appearing Real"just jump flip and kick its that easy""It's all in your head, get over it"2nd Degree Black BeltInstructor @ MAI Karate in Canton, Connecticut
